It's a cartoon cat, so that's not too unusual a thing... unlike this next one:

After not really skinning much at all for awhile, too many projects and a mountain of requests, I got a bit burned out. Thought the best way to get back into it was to do a hatchet job. Something very basic that's been lurking around in my head for awhile.

One of the first dozen skins ever made for ut99 by players was the Orch:
Image

Really basic, no team colors. Not great but not horrid... and butt ugly.

Tail end of 2011 I picked up a cyberbully. A truly sick individual who when he couldn't bother me with his usual crap, he started making threats towards my family. Like going after my younger family members, stalking them, kidnapping them, and it doesn't get any better from there. He wasn't actually doing it but he delighted in describing it to me, and if I blocked him he'd just make a new account and start all over again.

Guy used to bug me a lot, then after a bit I gradually thickened my skin so he barely bothered me at all... which isn't to say he stopped trying.

I eventually nicknamed him 'the nitwit'. Also kinda helped I started naming bots after his online personas, he had a lot, and used it as therapy to blow the holy heck outta them with ut99's more devastating weapons.

This is the nitwit skin.
Image

Been in my head for awhile, finally put it together tonite. Overall build time, I'd say 45 minutes at most. Kinda screwed up the team colors, which is why it's only on 1 side and just that one leg... but this is a skin for me and that color streak is big enough it can be seen easily enough from all but one side of him.

Borrowed armor parts from the Medieval Knight skin, and the pants from the Bikers.

Switched the skin color to yellow because, as with all bullies that've ever lived, the nitwit is a coward at heart.

A recent SKtrooper I took from ut2004's Invasion online, I gave team colors and have been using this past week:

The individual textures are these:

Original...

Team Colors I edited for it...
Image Image Image Image

I generally setup my Sktroopers in batches, 3 in total so far:
Image

Because it's not a generally accepted model for players to wear, I never really set them up as distribution... and there's been some drama in the past when I just tried to show them to folks:

Some of you may know I've something of an obsession with Bizarros. If you don't know about them, they're imperfect clones of superheroes in DC Comics with chalky skin, warped thinking, and usually talk kinda weird.

I've made a couple skins of them before, decided I wanted an Aquazarro:
Image

First draft was promising...
Image
...but I was gonna do team colors and the sleeves didn't work for that.

Second draft...
Image
...bony extensions can pass for armor from sea creatures, both on shoulder and on the rims of the gloves.

Team Colors...
Image
...not too thrilled with the red yet.

And the talk texture:

This is the first it's really come up, but this thread is largely for my own stuff. Still, love the animated skins. Those're great!

Sure. I dunno who made the original gold one, but the rest are my edits of it and you're welcome to them.

Took a stab at an Iron Man template I've had on the back burner for awhile:
Image

Not too thrilled the arms's yellow don't match the legs yet.

Toying with swapping the head with 1 or 2 heads from other Iron Man armors...

If they were high res like the evil dragon skin it would be a massive improvement on the game

cheers!

Of course. You don't even have to credit me for the team colored ones, though I did make them and there's about a 50% chance my spirit will haunt your ancestors if you don't.
papercoffee wrote:You have much better Iron Man skins out there in the wild.
Don't I know it. Both the War Machine i edited, plus the Chris Ollis' Iron Man I edited, are both sharper nicer designs than this one... still, this is a first draft.

Even this oldie from Skin City is a bit better · http://skincity.beyondunreal.com/sectio ... php?id=247

Thanks, though they're not really mine. Like a lot of skins for monsters, I found them with extensive google searches.

I'm still trying to lay my hands on these · http://www.ut99.org/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=4639

I'd like to point out when I first slapped this thing together I was told team colors were unnecessary.

I may not do much more than this. Still thinking.
